"Send the order, surrender!"
Ye Li is not a person who can persevere.
Knowing that his retreat was cut off and that he could not stop Wang Qi's army, Ye Li didn't bother to talk nonsense and directly chose to surrender. Anyway, Gu Kang has escaped, and Gu Kang caused Xiong Tai to be killed, so there is definitely no chance.
As the order was passed on, the Lujiang County soldiers on a ship surrendered one after another. Everyone got off the warship, returned to the water village, threw away their weapons, and knelt on the ground to surrender.
Wang Qi came with his army. After looking around, he didn't find Gu Kang and frowned.
Where are the people?
Have you already escaped?
Wang Qi said in a deep voice: "Who is responsible? Someone who can speak."
Ye Li quickly stood up and said: "Reporting to the King of Qi, the villain's name is Ye Li, and he is a general in the army. Now all the soldiers obey my dispatch and arrangements."
Wang Qi asked: "Where is the Gu Kang people?"
Ye Li replied: "When Gu Kang was rushing to the ferry, Master Qu said that King Qi might have a back-up plan and suggested that the prefect should break out of the encirclement by land. So on the way, Gu Kang handed me the flag and asked me to take it. The soldiers retreated to the water stronghold. Gu Kang and Master Qu had already left with a group of soldiers."
Wang Qidao: "Who is the master of music?"
At this moment, Wang Qi was a little curious about Master Qu. He set a trap just to capture Gu Kang alive, but Gu Kang escaped.
Master Qu has some abilities.
Ye Li immediately said: "Report to the King of Qi, Master Qu's name is Qu Jin, he is Gu Kang's counselor and holds the position of Chief Secretary. Gu Kang's success today is inseparable from Master Qu's advice."
Gu Tong looked like he was sighing, and said: "It's such a pity, Your Highness, once Gu Kang escapes. When Gu Kang returns to Lujiang, he will resurrect, which will be extremely detrimental to us."
Ye Li shook his head and said: "Gu Kang has been running away for a long time and cannot be caught up. I am willing to surrender and ask King Qi to accept it."
Wang Qidao: "Are you willing to surrender?"
Ye Li said: "I am willing, I am willing. Moreover, I know a secret message."
Wang Qidao: "What secret news?"
Ye Lidao: "It's Xiong Tai's identity."
Wang Qi said: "What is Xiong Tai's identity?"
Ye Li replied: "Xiong Tai is the third prince of the Chu State. He has outstanding strength and great influence. Gu Kang is a member of Xiong Tai. Well, he should be from the Chu State. This news should only come from Master Qu and Gu Kang knows.¡±
"The reason why I know is because on the way to Jiujiang County, I was on the same boat as Gu Kang and Xiong Tai, and when they were chatting, I was patrolling not far away. And with my sharp ears, I vaguely heard them discussion."
Ye Li said: "Now that Xiong Tai is dead, Gu Kang will definitely be in trouble."
Wang Qi¡¯s eyes lit up.
He had some doubts about Xiong Tai¡¯s identity before, but he didn¡¯t expect that Xiong Tai was the third prince of Chu State.
This is interesting.
If Xiong Tai had not been killed, it would have been very difficult for Wang Qi to recruit Gu Kang. Today, Gu Kang is in a dilemma because he caused Xiong Tai to be killed and was defeated again. On this occasion, Gu Kang is actually in a dilemma. Once the state of Chu becomes angry, Gu Kang himself will be unable to guard the city and stop Wang Qi. If he still surrenders to the Chu State, he will definitely be punished and his end will be extremely miserable.
"Gutong!"
Wang Qi gave an order.
"exist!"
Gu Tong answered immediately.
Wang Qidao: "You lead all the soldiers and are responsible for detaining the soldiers under Ye Li's command, and continue to sit at the ferry. In addition, all the warships, untie the ropes binding the oars. I, the king, will immediately pursue Gu Kang and not let him escape. Yes. You, resolve the war here at the ferry.
"yes!"
Gu Tong answered immediately.
Wang Qidao: "Ye Li, you will lead the way to the specific location of Gu Kang's troops. I will lead the people to catch up. As long as you catch up with Gu Kang, I will remember your great achievements. Not only will I not punish you, but I will also reward you."
Ye Lidao: "Promise to complete the task."
Gu Kang is a grasshopper after autumn, he can't jump for long. If Gu Kang had defeated Wang Qi before, Ye Li would have nothing to say. Now Gu Kang was not only defeated, but also all his troops were captured. At this time, Gu Kang was not only threatened by Chu State, but also unable to resist Wang Qi, so Ye Li felt there was no need to continue to be loyal to Gu Kang.
What should be done, he has already done.
Ye Li solemnly said: "Your Highness, please rest assured, I promise to complete the task."
Wang Qi immediately mobilized his soldiers and left with Xia Houhu and a team of more than 200 elites.
These two hundred or so people are truly brave soldiers.
And the two hundred men are all cavalry.
This is almost all the cavalry under Wang Qi's command, because in the south of the Yangtze River, it is inconvenient for the cavalry to travel. In particular, the horses for these cavalry were actually mainly provided by Lu Yuanda when they were in Jiujiang County.
Wang Qicai was able to form a cavalry of more than 200 people.
The land south of the Yangtze River lacks war horses.
There are even fewer cavalry.
Wang Qi led a group of people, and Ye Li led the troops. In a short period of time, they had arrived at the place where Gu Kang and Ye Li had separated their troops. Ye Li led a group of people and quickly pursued them.
At the same time, another sentry left first to inquire about the news.
Make sure you know the situation.
It won¡¯t make your eyes dark.
The team pursued quickly, but the sky was already dark. Fortunately, it is August now, and the moon is like a disk. Under the bright moonlight, even though it is night, I can see the road clearly.
But even so, it was a torch.
The army continued to pursue them.
After coming out of the road where the troops were divided, it was a straight road all the way. Moreover, there is only one road to get to Lujiang County, so it is relatively easy to catch up.
Time passed during this pursuit, and it was almost midnight in the evening. Gu Kang¡¯s whereabouts were not yet found ahead.
After all, during the afternoon battle, when Gu Kang¡¯s army retreated, Gu Kang evacuated first. Wang Qi then led his men to the ferry, and after capturing Ye Li, he began to lead his men in pursuit.
Ye Li also followed Wang Qi on the road. Because he had not caught up with Lu Kang for a long time, Ye Li also became a little anxious. If he can't catch up, it means he hasn't done anything well.
This is an important matter for him to submit to Wang Qi.
It must be done well.
Ye Li looked at Wang Qi who was not far away and shouted: "His Royal Highness, King Qi, I am sure that there is nothing wrong with our pursuit. Gu Kang must have retreated overnight, so he did not catch up for the time being."
He was not only talking to Wang Qi, but also encouraging himself, for fear of not being able to catch up.
Wang Qi said: "Don't worry, just chase."
Ye Li slowed down slightly after hearing Wang Qi's words.
It was past midnight, and there was a sentry in front of the pipeline. He quickly came back and reported: "Your Highness, about fifteen miles in front of us, there is a group of people who stopped to rest. They are Gu Kang's army."
Wang Qi perked up and ordered: "Come down here and drive at full speed. After catching up with Gu Kang, come back and rest. If you capture Gu Kang, I will give you a lot of rewards."
"yes!"
The officers and men all received their orders.
Everyone was excited at this moment. They were afraid that they would be busy for half the night and gain nothing. Now that the news has finally been received, all the cavalry are energized and ready to fight.
Da! clatter! clatter! ! !
With the rapid sound of horse hooves, everyone galloped on their horses and began to speed up, heading towards Gu Kang's army fifteen miles ahead.
